"I think Cameron Schultze has some confidence, he looked good. He stepped up and took some shots. You have to give that kid some credit he came off the bench with his head on right and knocked some shots down," Coach Dana Morgan said.

Alton (10-9) will move into the semifinals on Friday at 6 p.m. and will play unbeaten Collinsville (19-0).
